PERFORMER INFO Summer Solstice/Sommeranfang 22.06.2012 @ 23:00
DANIELA GAST** GUIGNOL** HANS KELLETT** SANDRA SARALA** VOLCANICK** WASP SUMMER
Daniela Gast In my works as a video/installation artist I search for and
reinstall emotions to bridge the technical and conceptional aspects of the
same. It’s like spinning outwards from the centre which the mind creates and
the body permeates.
Daniela Gast Als Video/Installation und Performance Künstlerin suche und erneuere
ich Emotionen die den technischen und konzeptionellen Prozess meiner Arbeit
überbrücken. Es ist wie das Drehen nach Aussen - ausgehend von einem Zentrum
das der Verstand kreiert und den Körper durchdringt.

Guignol sounds
out a territory ranging wild between intense ballads and furious punk-blues, a
magical hybrid of singer-songwriter traditions, folk, punk,
blues and twisted pop that sorties into cinematic, theatrical sonic
sound. Rhythmic-noise physicality and impetuosity
touching multiple destinations of the mind.

Hans Kellett,
singer of the band Princessin Hans, will be massaging stories out of his old
suitcase gramophone.
Hans Kellett, Sänger der Band Princessin Hans, wird Geschichten aus seinem alten Koffergrammophon raus massieren.

late night Summer Solstice Berlin COMPASS cabaret hosted by LOKI hosted
by SANDRA SARALA** with DANIELA GAST** GUIGNOL** HANS KELLETT**
VOLCANICK** WASP SUMMER** along with Mystery Guests
the penultimate edition of the Berlin series
celebrating the sun in the North
with all the plenty of the rituals of eastern-central European summer... scaring away the spring, water, fire, flower wreaths and fake weddings, kissing games, singing, drinking, laughter, happiness and love...
with stunning music from:
alt-country queen WASP SUMMER &
punk-blues-chansons maestro GUIGNOL (Pier Adduce, solo, on special import from Milan)
video installation performance art from:
DANIELA GAST
the delightful HANS KELLETT, singer of the band Princessin Hans, will be massaging stories out of his old suitcase gramophone
VOLCANICK is going to shake, shimmy and gyrate
while your host SANDRA SARALA, possessed by the trickster LOKI, shapeshifts his-her-its way through the shortest night, when the veils between space and time flex and change and mutating forms of Slavic and Germanic song and word break free
The first act of communal Bread Breaking can and will happen any time from 23:00
following the second UEFA EURO 2012 quarter final (Kick-off 20:45)
which is showing - as our warm-up act - on the big screen with live commentary from Club der polnischen Versager's very own ADAM GUSOWSKI and PIOTR MORDEL
